I am trying to merge two vertices. Earlier on in my modeling I hit "P" to create a new part/object ( I origallny did this to keep that part flat ). Now I need to rejoin some vertices as there's a small gap but "Merge" - "Merge to center" does not work. As always any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks, Jack.

$\begingroup$ If you have separated your 2 meshes in 2 separate objects, you can't join their vertices anymore, is it your problem here? $\endgroup$– moonbootsMar 3, 2022 at 18:55

$\begingroup$ Yes this is my issue. $\endgroup$– Jiggjack8Mar 3, 2022 at 19:44

$\begingroup$ so the answer is: don't separate your 2 meshes into 2 objects ^^ $\endgroup$– moonbootsMar 3, 2022 at 19:45

$\begingroup$ Yeah ok. So how do I Un-seperate them? $\endgroup$– Jiggjack8Mar 3, 2022 at 19:48

$\begingroup$ You need to join the 2 objects with Ctrl J, then you'll be able to create edges between the vertices $\endgroup$– moonbootsMar 3, 2022 at 19:51

Try selecting all the vertices that border the gap
and press 'F' to fill the gap.
As your description was pretty complicated, it might be helpful to paste an image in your question! :)

$\begingroup$ You can't Fill between seperate objects! $\endgroup$ Mar 3, 2022 at 19:29

$\begingroup$ Picture added. As you can see it's only a thin gap I'm wanting to close. Hence the need for merging. $\endgroup$ Mar 3, 2022 at 20:11

$\begingroup$ I posted this without knowing that it was two different objects, yes you would select the two objects and use Ctrl J to join them, then use the fill $\endgroup$ Mar 3, 2022 at 20:14

$\begingroup$ I have tried Ctrl J and then merge the vertices but still with no success. $\endgroup$ Mar 3, 2022 at 21:01
